Such a great video sister you are an inspiration and someone to be proud of. Yes there are costs and challenges in moving to another country let alone in Africa. With a clear plan and clear realistic budget expectations and an attempt to understand the culture, way of life and economy a person or family can settle. Even Europeans and Chinese people have moved and settled and made a fortune just packing up and moving to Africa facing the mosquitos, traffic and slow movement of getting things done. Time for Black folks to stop moaning, whining and finding excuses. Move to a Country where people look like you and welcome you or live somewhere your identity is questioned even by your self. Risk dying from a traffic stop or live in freedom and dignity the choice is yours.

[@ainsleylovell9035]

I really love this country, I found love and really want to relocate

[@keepcreationprocess]

MAKE A FORTUNE? OVER THE BACK OF...............cheating lying criminalities human trafficking attacking ........that's why it has become dangerous there because of those cut throat foreigners that move there.......the import foreigners are the ones who turns the local culture upside down - AND TURN IT INTO A DANGEROUS PLACE BECAUSE THEY LACK THE CULTURAL HISTORY KNOWLEDGE RESPECT AND SOCIAL CONTEXT foreigners create problems everywhere .....they come.....nnnnoooo respect - they come for the money 💰 and for the eeaasssyyyy ness, Andy boake.....YOU LACK RESPECT BY SAYING THIS......YOUR WORDS MARK THE END OF ANY CIVILIZATION.....such a Dumbo.You foreigners destroy Gambian people .

Well done for your video, my Gambian husband has watched a few of the videos I am obsessed with because we will be moving back to Gambia in next 4 yrs once our house is built. An he said you channel is by far the best he has seen positive upbeat and not derogatory to anybody else like so many are. He said you are a beautiful truthful sister. Thought I should share his words with you x

[@zandelasjourney]

Hi Julie, thank you and please tell your husband I said that’s so nice of him to say so. Thank you xx

[@proyouservicesltd3652]

As you said you can easily decrease the cost or increase it if you wish. Whilst you are roughly living on $2,000 monthly, locals can live a comfortable middle-class lifestyle with almost all the same conveniences you enjoy for about $200 per month. The key thing in sustaining yourself is to ensure that you try and live on the income alone that your business or job in the country is generating.

[@sgreeni]

I am coming there shortly to set up a satellite office there. Good internet and being able to make calls internationally are a must.

[@sgreeni]

@@kammys22 yes, I will be getting all that. I cannot risk outages with my businesses.

[@marys6887]

Why generator? Go solar and get a borehole. No light and water bill

[@zandelasjourney]

@@marys6887 yes I would agree go solar for sure. If you move before you can get the funds to set up the solar then defiantly get a generator. It’s always good to have one to hand anyway but we have learnt to not always run to the generator most of the time when the power goes as it’s normally back on in 10min

[@sgreeni]

@@marys6887 all of the above...

[@marys6887]

I have a video for you to watch. His channel is called Tinker A. Maybe type "Tinker A, solar and borehole in the Gambia." He also works full time from home so when he built his house in The Gambia, he had solar panels, solar water heater, and a borehole. His electricity switches from NAWEC (power company) to Solar so there is no interruption. I like Qcell for home internet because it is Gambian owned and you'll pay about £55 to £60 a month or $70 to $80 for home internet.

[@josephbrown1573]

To summarize to live a middle class or slightly above life style is not really cheap. I got the impression from many youtubers that you can live in most African countries for about $700/month! Maybe for a single person maybe .There are many people in the US if you do not include their mortgage who have a similar budget .Internet ,Netflix manicures , groceries , are actually the same as in the US!. Gas for the car is VERY expensive, WOW! You always provide realistic information!

[@northen007]

Ghana is one of the most expensive country to liv,is about an average of up to 25% expensive than gambia...and prices are still rising. If not it's an amazing country

[@LoveandLightHK]

It's not cheap to live a western standard. Realistically 2k usd a month.

[@aminataykanu]

Great video. I am seeing too many people going to Africa for the first time, thinking they can live a great life on a shoestring. I think the disconnect is the reason for so many people feeling miserable. Worth noting also that you may want to get a generator + fuel if you don't have solar because your water might not work if the power goes out. And satellite TV, if you don't have or want Netflix. Some people may want security guards, maids and other household staff, you have to pay them as well as make social security and tax payments on their behalf. Also worth knowing that many landlords would prefer an upfront payment of rent for maybe 6 months or a year. I love that you always plan properly and budget for every eventuality. It is wonderful to know the children are enjoying being home.

I think you guys should go solar to back up the lights and fridge only because those are more essential and get a solar water heater for hot water. Your light bill will be much cheaper.

They live a VERY poor life , I know I am Nigerian. They live in places you wouldn't deem habitable .All the people who work for me live in one room .I mean a family of 8, parents and six kids living in ONE ROOM! But here is the surprising thing human beings tend to accept their situation and live their lives . They have joys and sadness in their live regardless! That is human nature .I lived without hot showers for the first 27 years of my life and I didn't miss what I didn't have .But now I have lived in America for decades I take hot showers in the middle of hot American summers .I cant live without them!

[@orangemoonglows2692]

your internet is slower and more expensive than mine in california. in california, solar panels is calculated by square foot of your home. i imagine they account for the average power usage (or something along those lines) for the square foot and location of your home. they know that a home in cali might typically have washer/dryer, microwave, computers, dishwasher, etc.

[@NomadShifu]

Before factoring rent costs, the average two-person household in The Gambia needs about $273 per month. You can add between $135 and $482 to your monthly rent expenses.

[@zandelasjourney]

And add about £150-£200 per month per child if you have children that are of school age.

No matter what with what you are saying it is better than living in the Uk seeing the sun alone makes a big difference eating fresh food instead of the dead meat is much better where you are for me nothing can be better than to be in my garden in my underwear look how nice you are looking because of the sun yes you may have yr other problems but you are not stressing out if you can plant some things that you can plant then you buy what you cannot you have bought yr land and then you will build yr house little by little and if yr husband have some building skills then it will be even cheaper to build yr home

I don't like this behavior of African Diaspora comparing prices of of items in Africa and where they are from UK or USA. Most Africans live their life according to their earning power. Many items are imported from abroad. Houses are build according to affordability of the owners. If you want to live a western life style in Africa you have to pay more than in the west for most stuff. Fortunately there areas that are cheap in Africa but with less quality. If you earn more than USD2000 per month then you will be to live western life style of someone on minimum wage in the west.

Now Brazil is a huge country, there are many places you can live and it doesn't cost too much.

[@gdotone1]

just a helpful thought here, i hope: take a look at your electric bill, and see how many kilowatt-hours you guys use a month. let's say you use 1,500 kilowatt-hours per month. using 30 days in the month as our standard for days in a month, 1500 / 30 = 50, so your home uses 50 kilowatt-hours a day on average. if you are interested in generating all your power needs, you would need to size your system to handle that. let's say you buy a 10 kilowatt system. if you get 7 hours of sun, solar sun, on average, a day, then 10 kilowatts X 7 hours = 70 Kilowatt-hours a day. which is great, but as you said, you know you need batteries that will take the extra power generated by the solar panels and store that excess power in batteries for night time use. the battery system needs to be large enough to carry on for 24 - 7 = 17 hours. of course at night you will not use as much power as you do during the day. depending. i have seen systems where people get enough batteries to go for 3, 4, 5 days. according to an online calculator you need 63 kWh lithium battery size, for 1,500kWh per month use. unboundsolar.com/solar-information/battery-bank-sizing i wonder how the rainy season will effect your power production through out the month. if 10kW is the system size, and the panels produce 350 watts a panel, 10,000 watts / 350 watts you would need 29 panels. lol. i would mount them on the ground in the yard. solar panels produce DC current, be very careful, just because it is DC does not mean it will not hurt you, you will need an inverter or inverters to turn DC into AC. i am looking forward to getting solar, i'm doing a 20kW system. you may be able to sell your excess power to the local power company. power is cheap there. are you sure you need panels? maybe you only need the batteries to handle when the power goes out. unless solar panels are cheap there, then ...

Amazing, what you spend in the Gambia for a month is more than what i used to spend in the Gambia for two years. The difference is because i live like a poor man you live like super rich. But still expenses are high, I'm sure $300 to $500 is enough to live good in the Gambia for a small side family if you're not renting.

[@zandelasjourney]

I think I just proved that it’s impossible to live off of $300 if your internet and petrol alone come to $300 and that’s not living like super rich it’s essential for many to have internet due to online work, communication etc also if you didn’t have to drive 2hrs a day I’m sure you’ll have to drive to work or some places so the cost of running a car or taxis would add up and then only if you add food cost you’ve already gone over $300 and as you said I haven’t mentioned gas, water electricity, feminine products etc. If your a single man Eboy most of my cost would not apply to you but if you have children and a wife then most would apply.

[@MrBah-tw3gt]

@@zandelasjourney yes I know, the internet is expensive but that will change if more companies invest in telecom services, also the outdoor services are expensive because they're intended for tourists. Buying anything, be it from a supermarket, restaurant etc around senegambia, Bijilo, Brusubi could be coastly. Rely heavily on the local markets and restaurants, they might not be as organised as those in the touristy areas but they're highly affordable. Eg, eating in a location restaurant will coast around D50. Anyway, if you have the money, then you have to live good, it is the dream of everyone.

Hello, I just came back from Gambia on May 20th; I really love it. I stayed in Bacau at Harmony Resort Hotel. I want to move there from the US; can you help me with some suggestions? I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Please do a video on expatriate business start up! Would you assess how stream line it is to get you business regularized? How is corruption and crime?

I'm happy to see so many people going back to our lovely country. I'll also be going back In Sha Allah after I finish my master degree in nursing and my wife too who is MD. I'll be happy to help many people who wants to come to Gambia to settle down and know the city before they can be on their own. Is that going to work? Also we planning to open a health care system where we going to provide good Healthcare services for cheaper to everyone. I know a lot of my friends here who are in the medical field who wants to help.

That’s excellent to hear you’ll be moving back. As always Gambia welcomes you home. I believe there are services that help people who don’t know Gambia at all to settle but there can never be too many with the amount of people choosing Gambia as their country of return. I don’t even need to tell you as you already know anything healthcare related is a great choice and needed for all of us locals and people returning home. I look forward to meeting you and your family one day soon. X
